Meanwhile on reddit.

Honestly kind of sounds like lemmy.world mods like Jordan Lund tho…

To get a project featured on the subreddit, developers now need to show it has been actively maintained for at least a year, has an established community, and has at least three contributors, give or take. Student projects such as note-taking apps and PDF viewers aren’t welcome either, and developers can no longer use the subreddit to find people willing to help maintain their software.

That creates a chicken-and-egg problem for independent developers, who apparently need an established community before they can use an open source forum to find one. Even projects with no AI involvement could fall foul of the rules. One Reddit user pointed out that their nine-year-old project, which has more than 300 GitHub stars and dozens of resolved issues, would no longer qualify because they’re its sole contributor.

The moderator also imposed a minimum Reddit account age of one year and requires significant prior contributions. Anyone who attempts to post and then contacts the moderators seeking an exception risks being permanently banned and muted.

@neil Meh, expansions contract, then expand, until it all goes Big Crunch.

Could we do a LOT better in some areas, that are VITAL to our root infrastructure?

You bet.

@spla també la vaig fe servir de pot comú per unes vacances de 3 dies amb més gent.

TIL that if you register your site with Google Search Console, you can switch off a “Search generative AI” setting to tell Google not to include your site’s content in its AI overviews.

I have serious doubts about whether this •actually• excludes the site. (Do they untrain their LLM?! Will they even block your site when retraining? I severely doubt it.)

However, I’m quite sure that it sends a signal to some sad, dark business analytics corner of Google. And it’s a signal I want to send.

@spla jo la vaig obrir per anar a Japó. Em va anar molt bé per pagar ¥ amb un canvi acceptable. Pla gratuit també.

@boud Yes, the DFSG team might implement some changes after having received quite a bit of feedback on this topic now. But even if they change it, I worry about the long-term situation. If I start having to worry "what problem will it be today?" when I wake up, then this hobby will become more dread and less fun and then I will just put my priorities elsewhere. @mildpeach @Lamuchan

@hbons In fact this is the reason why I *didn't* do CSS.
